Question:
Answer:
Wa alaykum salam wa rahmatuLlahi wa barakatuHu,
There are specific conditions that apply to wiping on one’s khuff. From those conditions is that the khuff is free from any hole or tear. Thus, it is not permissible to wipe on such a khuff even if the tear is small, because in that instance it does not cover all of the foot. The foot’s being exposed requires that it be washed [ghasl]. And its being covered allows that it be wiped over. It is not permissible to join between washing and wiping at the same time. (Mughni al-Muhtaj 1/66)
And Allah the Exalted knows best.

إن لمسح الخفين شروطا فمنها أن يكون الخف سليما من الخروق فإن لا يجوز المسح على خف مهما كان صغيرا لأنه عندئذ لا يكون ساترا لجميع القدم وما انكشف من القدم حكمه الغسل وما استتر حكمه المسح ولا يجوز الجمع بين الغسل والمسح في آن واحد. (مغني المحتاج، ج 1، ص 66)
والله تعالى أعلم بالصواب
